Cap Corse Mattei Quinquina Rouge is Corsica's famous aperitif, created in 1872 by merchant Louis-Napoléon Mattei and named for his native Cap Corse, the peninsula that juts north from the island into the Mediterranean. It is made on a base of Corsican Muscat and Vermentinu mistelles (grape must fortified with spirit) infused with cinchona bark, local and exotic spices and walnuts, and it has been the island's drink of welcome for generations. Bottled at 17% ABV in a 750ml bottle.

The taste is rich Muscat fruit and dried orange with walnut, warm spice and a gentle quinine bitterness on a smooth, wine-like body. Corsicans drink it chilled or over ice with a twist of lemon as an aperitif, and it makes a beautiful spritz with soda. Bartenders use it in place of sweet vermouth in a Manhattan, a Negroni or a Cap Corse and tonic. A taste of the Mediterranean.
